Paper Space

Post by S2BCROZ » Thu Oct 13, 2011 4:45 pm

Is there ant documentation on paper_space and paper_space0 available?
Using cad practice, it is common to put a titleblock in paper_space at 1:1 scale (full) and put your actual cad entities of the scope of work in model_space scaling block and sizing text for the desired output scale.

I tried this in QCAD 3 but I do not know how to combine the two when printing. any feed back is greatly appreciated.

thanks,
Steve

Paper space is not supported in QCAD 3 at this point. The paper space blocks are loaded from a file if it contains them, so they don't get lost, but QCAD treats them like regular blocks.
